Текст песни

As far back as he cares to remember,
He used to see his old man lose the temper
And mama's pretty face would catch it all,
On a regular basis the nest would fall

But he was always safe from dad's rage,
Cause mama sacrificed in his place
Two-dozen years of the blood, sweat, tears,
Avoid the mirror, losing her hair from the fear

She never left him, stayed inside
He beat her ass up until the day that he died
In fact, the biggest beating was the day that he died
Cause now it's too late for her to make a new life

She gets to mourn for the touch of a punch,
Won't ever admit that she ain't clutching it much,
Someday she'll die, it still won't be done
The anger lives on through their son

Cause he saw, he caught it all
A childhood of watching ma and pa get raw
It's too bad for him, nah, that's half the truth
'Cause you back with him now and he's smacking you

What happened to you? You don't have a clue
Did your mama used to suffer accidents too?
I never knew that you would stand for abuse,
I guess I just assumed that you would pack up and move

Think about when you left him last time,
Said out loud that you would never forgive past crimes,
Sunglasses, so dark, scarf around the neck to cover the choke marks

And since you gotta justify returning,
You convinced yourself that he's just a hurt person
You wanna blame that cross he bears,
But his pop's not there when he tosses you down stairs

Let me be the last to say,
Please don't stay
Let me be the last to say,
You won't be okay

Please put your shoes on and step into that warm weather,
Go get yourself a more better forever
Gotta put it down, you gotta leave it,
And don't ever come back again, you gotta mean it

Just tear it all apart and build new,
Cause if you don't kill him, he's gonna kill you
You can't hold hands when they make fists,
And I ain't the first to say this

But let me be the last to say,
Please don't stay
Let me be the last to say,
You won't be okay
Let me be the last to say,
Please don't stay
